Answer: After 3 hours both will have the same cost.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Number of hours and y be the total cost.
Total cost = Initial cost + (cost per hour)(Number of hours)
At Mike's Bounce Shop,
Total cost (y)= 30+2x
At Jose's Bounce Rentals,
Total cost(y) = 12+8x
When both shops have the same cost, then

Total cost = 12+8(3)=12+24=$36
Hence, After 3 hours both will have the same cost.
Answer:
x = 3
y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
9x - y = 26 ---------------(I)
9x + y = 28 ---------------(II)
9x - y = 26
9x = 26 + y
Substitute 9x = 26 + y in equation (II)
26 + y + y = 28 {add like terms}
26 + 2y = 28 {subtract 26 from both sides}
2y = 28 - 26
2y = 2 {divide both sides by 2}
y = 2/2
y = 1
Substitute y =1 in equation (I)
9x - 1 = 26
9x = 26 + 1
9x = 27
x = 27/9
x = 3
x = 3
y = 1
AC
Same line segment just goes in the other direction.
Your answer is gonna be C. 4
Hope I helped :)
